Because I am on a roll with blog posts and don't want to think about leaving...
Check out www.flowermag.com (you can click the link on the left). I have been interning at the magazine this summer and am constantly amazed with the magazine itself and the people involved with it. Margot Shaw, the editor, is so passionate not only about the magazine but about life in general--it is kind of contagious. Melissa Brown and Callie Aldridge have also been so wonderful and kind--to watch their creativity at work is really fun!
And if you really love the website, go ahead and order a subscription--you won't be disappointed!

Travel
So this afternoon I am heading out west to visit a friend at a ranch in Jackson Hole with my parents and sister. The boys will be fending for themselves for about a week. Sadly, Wil couldn't go and Wiley is a little bit young for a ranch. I always get nervous and anxious before leaving, so here I am distracting myself by updating the blog. I still have to clean up the apartment and finish packing. agh!
On another note, Wiley was bit yesterday at school. At first I thought the teacher meant that Wiley had bitten another child (We had had a scare a week ago when a bite notice was put in our cubby but was for another child) and I was absolutely horrified and embarrassed. Then they let me know that in fact Wiley was the "victim." Was it bad that I was relieved? He'll recover from a bite, but teaching him not to bite could be a real problem and challenge.
We also have hit with full force, the terrible twos. We have had baby fits over buckling in the car seat, getting dressed, and just about anything that he does not want to do. So any advice on getting through the twos would be much appreciated!!
Here is a picture of Wiley appearing to be a sweet swaddled baby, but in reality throwing a babyfit b/c it was bath time...(notice how big he has gotten! He is so heavy!)

4th of July
We had a great time at the Lake with Baba, Big Dean, Aunt B, Gena, Charlie and two new puppies! Don't worry, they aren't ours. Brooke and her boyfriend saved them near the lake, Brooke's is the fluffy, blond, golden-retriever-like one with short stumpy legs. We tubed (Wiley, included...slowly) and skiied (Brooke got up on two and I got up on one!) and just enjoyed hanging out. Wiley loved being on his beach, too! Here are some pictures from the holiday.
